| sorry but such researches reminds me of 1930's. I am sure Ancient pictures and suculptors let us understand how were they. But don't forget that at the beggining, there was stylisation at this art works and later idealisation. | |||||||||||

| It is hard to know, really, how much we do resemble the ancient Greeks in figure. Still, I hope we could be more like them in the intellectual manners, in ethics, philosophy and science, diversity and democratic life. If we could do something like that, and further excel in those ways, I wouldn't give a damn whether we have ancient Greek characteristics or genes. | |||||||||||

| Also cultural roots are more important than genetic roots. Today there is not any pure nation in the world, espacially at this geography. In that case, I always think, Turkish historians must write our history again under the light of the new scientific researches. | |||||||||||
